As LIOM is growing, we are strengthening our internal IT organization. Reporting to the COO and supported by a senior IT expert, you will be the driving force behind IT operations, projects, and AI adoption across the company.
This is a hands-on coordination and leadership role. You won't need to personally implement every technical solution, but you will own the outcomes: orchestrating the right expertise, keeping projects on track, and making sure IT and AI genuinely serve the future development of LIOM.
Your responsibilities:
- Act as the internal point of contact for IT topics across the company, triaging questions, coordinating requests, and following up until they are resolved.
- Manage the relationship with our IT partners, translating business needs into clear requests and holding them accountable on delivery.
- Lead IT-related projects end-to-end: scoping, planning, coordinating stakeholders, and tracking progress.
- Select adequate AI tools and technologies for LIOM's needs, and drive adoption of AI across the company.
- Coach and train employees on IT tools and good practices, acting as a patient, approachable teacher rather than a gatekeeper.
- Draw on LIOM's network of expertise, including our IT Strategy Advisor, external partners and experts.
- Contribute to LIOM's data governance from an IT operations perspective, supporting data owners where IT systems and controls are involved.
- Keep an eye on everyday IT security hygiene, escalating and coordinating our external partners and experts.
Your profile
- Minimum 5 years of professional experience in IT, with at least part of it in a coordination, operations, or project-leadership capacity
- Solid, practical understanding of a modern IT environment (Microsoft 365, device management, everyday infrastructure concepts); you don't need to be a deep technical specialist, but you're comfortable enough to have an informed conversation with an external IT provider.
- Genuine strength in project management: you can plan, prioritize, and keep initiatives on track across several stakeholders at once.
- Excellent communication skills in a multicultural, scale-up environment, and the ability to explain IT topics in plain language to non-technical colleagues.
- A natural coach and teacher: patient, encouraging, and good at helping people build confidence with new tools.
- Real spike in AI productivity tools, with the judgment to help evaluate which tools are worth adopting and the drive to get people actually using them.
- A pragmatic, service-oriented mindset: comfortable being the orchestrator who brings in the right expertise rather than needing to have every answer personally.
- Fluent in English and comfortable working in a fast-paced startup environment; German is a strong asset.
- Prior experience in an IT coordination, IT operations, or similarly hybrid business/IT role.
- Experience with Microsoft Intune or similar endpoint management tools.
- Exposure to data governance or data risk frameworks.
- Experience working in a scale-up or fast-growing company environment.
- Familiarity with Google Cloud Platform or cross-cloud environments.
